I am truly grateful for the opportunity to serve the families of Vancouver iTech Preparatory, and I’m excited to begin another meaningful year of teaching and learning together.

As I enter my 10th year at iTech, I continue to believe deeply in the power of our project-based learning environment. It prepares students not only academically, but socially and emotionally for life beyond high school – whether their path leads to college, career, or both. Student success is never a solo effort. It takes all of us working together, and the partnership between families and staff makes an incredible difference.

Next year marks the 15th anniversary of iTech, a milestone that speaks to the dedication and commitment of this special community. What makes our school unique isn’t just the programs we offer, but the culture we’ve built together – a place where students are known, supported, challenged, and truly feel like they belong.

Our students bring their own strengths, passions, and perspectives into our building every day. With your support at home and ours at school, they are encouraged to take risks, embrace challenges, and grow with confidence. Each day may feel small in the moment, but together those days shape their future.

Please know that we are here for you. If you have questions, concerns, ideas, or simply want to connect, we welcome that conversation. Schools are strongest when families feel comfortable reaching out, and I genuinely value that partnership.

I’m looking forward to another year of growth, celebration, and learning – together.
